[PATCH 00/17] md: cleanup on direct access to bvec table

[PATCH 00/17] md: cleanup on direct access to bvec table

[Ming Lei]

In MD's resync I/O path, there are lots of direct access to bio's
bvec table. This patchset kills most of them, and the conversion
is quite straightforward.

Once direct access to bvec table in MD is cleaned up, we may make
multipage bvec moving on.

Thanks,
Ming

[PATCH 04/17] md: introduce helpers for dealing with fetch/store preallocated pages in bio

[Ming Lei]

Both raid1 and raid10 uses bio's bvec table to store pre-allocated
pages, then fetch and add it to bio.

This patch introduces two helpers for dealing with the special case,
like what bio_iov_iter_get_pages() does.

[PATCH 06/17] md: raid1/raid10: borrow .bi_error as pre-allocated page index

[Ming Lei]

Before bio is submitted, it is safe to borrow .bi_error. This
patch uses .bi_error as index of pre-allocated page in bio, so
that we can avoid to mess .bi_vcnt. Especially the old way
will not work any more when multipage bvec is introduced.

[PATCH 07/17] md: raid1/raid10: don't use .bi_vcnt to check if all pages are added

[Ming Lei]

Instead we use the index of the pre-allocated pages buffer, it should
be more explicit because the index(.bi_error) just means how many pages
are added to the bio.

[PATCH 08/17] md: raid1: simplify r1buf_pool_free()

This patch gets each page's reference of each bio for resync,
then r1buf_pool_free() gets simplified.

The same policy has been taken in raid10's buf pool allocation/free
too.

[PATCH 10/17] md: raid1: remove direct access to bvec table in fix_sync_read_error

[Ming Lei]

This patch uses a stack variable to hold the pages in bio, so
that we can remove direct access to bvec table in fix_sync_read_error().

This 16*8 stack variable is just fine for kernel thread context.

Given process_checks is only called in resync path, it should be
ok to allocate three stack variable(total 320byteds) to store
pages from bios.

In patch 1 you introduce bio_segments_all() with the log message 'So
that we can replace the direct access to .bi_vcnt.' Here you introduce a
new direct access to it (plus the duplicated WARN_ON_ONCE()).

Maybe use the helper directly here (I admit I haven't gone through the
whole series yet, so I can't see if the change is made later).

Firstly MD does need one helper to remove the last added page, as you
can see there are three such uses in patch3.

Secondly both the two helpers will be changed once multipage bvec
is supported, that means we have to change MD too after multipage bvec
if just using bio_segments_all() to replace .bi_vcnt for removing
the last added page.

That doesn't belong to this patch, which just wants to remove direct
access to .bi_vcnt.

But you're touching it anyways, aren't you?

Don't you know the policy of 'do one thing, do it better' in one patch?

If you want to switch to kcalloc(), just post a patch, that is fine, but
please don't push me to do that in this patch.

I'm not sure if we're talking past each other here, I assumed you'd do
something like:

void bio_remove_last_page(struct bio *bio)
{
	int vcnt = bio_segments_all(bio);

	if (bio_flagged(bio, BIO_CLONED))
		return;

	if (vcnt > 0) {
		struct bio_vec *bv = &bio->bi_io_vec[vcnt - 1];

		bio->bi_iter.bi_size -= bv->bv_len;
		bio->bi_vcnt--;
	}
}

What we are doing is to remove the external direct access to bvec
table in drivers or filesystems because they may misuse that, for
example, drivers often use .bi_vcnt to get the page count in the bio,
but the actual meaning is just bvec's count.

And the implementation in block layer still need to play the table directly,
especially for sake of efficiency, cause we understand the details and won't
misuse that.

Ah OK, so bio_segments_all() is intended for drivers.

I don't like this approach. The MD uses a hacky way to manage pages allocated,
this is the root of the problem. The patches add another hack way to do the
management. I'd like to see explict management of the pages, for example, add
data structure in r1bio to manage the pages, then we can use existing API for
all the stuffes we need.

Yes, I agree, and bio_iov_iter_get_pages() uses this kind of hacky way too
actually.

Yeah, that is definitely clean, but we have to pay the following cost:

- allocate at least N * (128 + 4) bytes per each r1_bio/r10_bio
- N is pool_info.raid_disks for raid1, and conf->copies for raid10

If we are happy to introduce the cost, I can take this way in V1.

It's not a big deal. The inflight bio shouldn't be big, so the r1_bio count
isn't big. We don't waste much.
